We shouldn't be unfair to other countries. We shouldn't just terrorize them for the sake of the pleasure.
But what we should be able to do is stand on our values, prioritize our own citizens and the economy they have to deal with and the safety and crime situation that they have to deal with on a daily basis and say, look, we'll work with you to stop these problems, but you have to care about it a little bit. And right now it doesn't look like you do.

Yeah, no, you're not going to hear much about that. And I like Harry Enten, and generally he does some good work, actually, at CNN, as opposed to some others over there. But you look at a poll on tariffs, you're not going to get the entire picture, I don't think. I mean, again, I don't like them. I would be in that 51%, generally speaking.

Some targeted tariffs at times have been beneficial, but we do see prices go up. I mean, we raised tariffs on...

you know washing machines years ago by 25 and the price for washing machines went up 25 and people had to pay more for that um sometimes that can be worth it especially if it's targeted in a way but like i don't even think that's what we're talking about here you know tariffs as a policy are one thing.

And you can look at that and see what the negative consequences are and some of the positive consequences. Really what it is, though, is negative consequences for both sides and who can kind of withstand the heat that comes from that. But more here is what we're seeing, like the best case scenario is what's happening with Mexico right now. The tariff didn't even go into effect. He just said it.

That was him just saying a thing. And because he said a thing, and people, thank you, Megan, people actually believed him for once. It wasn't an empty threat. People knew he wanted to do this and would do it if he had to. And because of that, we're starting to get the things that we should have already been receiving anyway.

Mexico should have been taking this situation seriously on the border before all of this. And this is a great commercial to everybody who's out there running a foreign nation.

Yeah, make free trade free, I think is a great way to go. And this is part of it. And I will say, I only once ordered from one of those companies, a workout shirt. It was like $2.99. And I did not think there was a way to make me look worse in the gym than I already do. It never works out. But that did it.

I sure hope Tom Homan and Donald Trump hear that because that certainly sounded like a challenge to me. You know, I was playing a little game of chicken. And I after watching what this president is doing around the world right now, I don't think I'd want to challenge him to that particular game. Seems like a losing venture.

You know, I feel like, you know, you mentioned the polls of the American people. And they see this, I think, in the same way.
